Which State Has the Most Car Accident Fatalities?
The number of fatalities changes every year. But the highest total number of fatalities in 2020 was in Texas, closely followed by California. This means that Texas is significantly deadlier than California because Texas has a population that is roughly 10 million less.
Is There Any State That Doesn’t Have Any Car Accident Fatalities?
No, even the least populated states have a handful of fatalities every year. For example, Alaska had 64 car accident fatalities in 2020. And the least populated state in the country, Wyoming, had 127 fatalities.
Why Is Car Ownership So Low in New York?
Roughly half of the population of New York lives in a major city. Most people who live in major cities don’t own cars because the city has good public transportation. And New York City has some of the best public transportation of any city in the country.
Can Morgan and Morgan Help Me Get a Police Report?
Yes. If you need a police report to complete your insurance claim, an attorney from Morgan & Morgan will help you get that report with minimal difficulty. That is just one of the many ways that we help our clients get the compensation they deserve after being injured in a car accident.
What Types of Accidents Are Most Likely to Result in a Fatality?
Motorcycle accidents and truck accidents are the most likely to result in fatalities. Unfortunately, motorcycles have very limited safety features, and that factor increases the number of deaths during those accidents. Conversely, trucks cause more fatalities because they are much bigger and heavier than the vehicles they strike.
